CPrinters Participate in Sales Call Reluctance® Training
|
|
CPrint® President Tom Crouser along with sixteen other CPrinters participated in the Fear Free Prospecting and Self Promotion Workshop™ presented by Behavioral Science Research Press in Dallas (Addison) April 28-29, 2009. The workshop is an outgrowth of the work done by George W. Dudley and Shannon L. Goodson as published in their book, “The Psychology of Sales Call Reluctance®: Earning What You’re Worth in Sales,” and it helps individuals identify and rectify forms of Inhibited Initial Contact Syndrome as it applies to selling.
 Pictured is Jacqui Calder, psychologist and Behavioral Science Research Press instructor. Shown studying (seated from the right) are Tom Crouser, CPrint® president, Sue Kessel of Chatham Print & Imaging in Chatham, New Jersey and partially hidden on the left side of Jacqui is Mark Troy, Dairyland Printing in Viroqua, Wisconsin.
“Specifically, said Crouser, “all sales training including ours has been focused on what to do after the contact has been made, but we’re finding more and more evidence that the contact just isn’t being made in the first place. That requires all of us to have a better understanding of why, which has led us to this important work.”

The Secret of Their Success
|
|
|
|

John Bond, left, and Johathan, right, are presented a sales award by Tom Crouser, president of CPrint International.
Bond Printing is featured in Plymouth County Business Magazine’s April/May edition. The four page article tracks the company’s journey from struggling young business to a successful and growing concern, providing prosperity and satisfying careers to two generations of the Bond family.
Company owner Jon Bond attributes much of their success to their involvement with CPrint® saying, “[F]rankly, we would be out of business had we not gotten involved in the group. It not only has helped us immeasurably with our business, but we have seen how other print company owners have managed to build a quality to their personal lives while growing their companies.”
Thanks to what Jon Bond and his son Jonathan learned from CPrint® about selling, the company was able grow sales 14% in 2008, in spite of a decline in sales to one of their top clients, a real estate company.
